If your lag is worse then the problem is your connection
 
it dont lag when im racing you, never,even if your the host all the time haha 👍

it must be there connection your right
 
:lol: Its not my connection buddy. If it was I would have lag all the time... which I dont. Ive asked people in the chat if they have the same problem and its turns out they do.

Was just asking a simple fact of "could anything be done", until your rude replies.

What speed is your connection?
 
So what's the reason for pulling the plug on a race if your connection is so good? :grumpy:

lol cmon mate it was you, me and 2 punters it was hardly worth spending 11 minutes on.

You were very fast today ive never raced you before 👍

nice changing what i actually said?? wtf??
 
10mbps??? lol mines 100MBps

yeeeeeyaaaa baby 11.28 race time :crazy:

Tiz,

What a waste of 100mbps. It doesn't matter wheather you have a 100000000mbps. 100Mbps does not guarantee a perfect connection, it just gives you an optimal speed. In the end of the day the problem is not with anyones connection, it is probably with PD's servers, hence why there is no world event. Till they sort that problem there will be nothing anyone can do.

So can we now stop the peeing contest, as to who has the better connection. Your lucky enough to live in a part of the world where you get 100mbps. We aren't we have only just realised 50mbps on a cable system, on a phone line we are lucky if we get 16mbps that is useless until BT (British Telecom), get their act together and update all the telephone exchanges.

At the end of the day my friends, the faster the connection, the less lag we will have!

Lets take 2 GTPers as an example,

GTP GUY # 1 has 18mbps speed
GTP GUY # 2 has 10mbps speed

gtp 1 has no lag when i host

gtp guy 2 has bad lag

simple as that! :dopey:

if everyone had a 100mbps speed surely it would be good as??
 
I'm pretty sure that the fact that you are hosting from New Zealand has more to do with people's lag than their own local network.

I only have 7 MBPS, and I have a decent connection when you host. I'm just geographically closer to you than Europe is.

Point is, we can argue back and forth, but since we don't know the inner-workings of PD's server network, everything means absolutely bubkis.

And when someone takes their own effort to edit your ego out of your own post, you should take it as a suggestion.

in that example i gave gtp guy #1 and 2 come from the same region

but yea no doubt what country you are in would make it better

Most of the people that race are euro boys

Tiz,

You are missing my point. We all have fast enough connections to run as host online. The problem is with PD, their servers aren't right for running world events. Like is said hence the reason there are no world events.

While there is this problem you as host will cause problems for us in Europe, and us as host will cause problems for you. Download speed has nothing to do with it.

then why doesn't gtp guy # 1 have problems? :sly:

Once the flood of "0's" and "1's" leave your play-station, wiggle their way to an undisclosed warehouse in Japan, and get flung thousands of miles through third world countries, and through smoggy atmosphere....

.....only to be caught by underfunded municipal information companies.....

.....I doubt 8 MBPS will mean anything.

I have a slower connection than Grim, and I run my PS3 wireless. Yet I have less lag when you host. Just proves that location is orders of magnitude more important than download speed. The argument of GTP guy 1 and GTP guy 2 in the same hosting country is moot, since that is rarely your case.

May I introduce the subject of Ping to the conversation?
 
Well im tired of this conversation, and i cant answer why your lag is worse than others

All i know, and all you know, is that the game chooses me, i didnt ask for it to happen, but when i saw lag of gt5p on youtube before i got my ps3, i got one of the fastest connections i could hoping it would be better, and after watching the 5-6 videos of my hosting, i can honestly say its much better than what i saw
 
I suggest then this discussion is left to a different thread, before we get a thread closed on an event that everyone is enjoying.

👍
 
Hi guys.

I've been taped most nastiest 'lag-accident' ever. After this, you can never be sure about any punts, rams, hits etc etc...

Littlebit sad, that this game does this kind of things. Lets hope things will be better.

Today, 9:39 AM

I've been watched many times one race from monday with TVR's, and wondering strange thing what happened to you when driving front of me.

When you have time, could you watch this video and try to remember what happened in lap 2. Something aint right there, how your car flies off track... it may be physics-bug in the game, or lag. I dont know, but it looks weird.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BhuhAJA9Tk

To me, it looks like I was hitting you... but I was not even close. What I wanted to hear is did you feel like punted there? If so, it's most nastiest lag-accident ever!

See you tonight with F512!

FAK
ahah lol... ye was weird idd i feel the hit/boost before degner 1,car suddenly did 230kmh,but in the video the car start spinning after degner 1...without visible contact... BAH?
+1 to the most nastiest lag-accident ever!
cya later
 
Well... lots of talk about speed and lag and connections... but how was racing last night? I couldn't join :(

Tonight is the last night for the base event, so we're going with the 512BB. Anyone has a setup for this to have in post #2?

(note: I only have a 3G HSPA connection and found that I only see lag when Tizzla is hosting. I used to think it was my connection but maybe his upload not feeding us back properly... so PD needs to review the requirements for hosting races. But don't want to get that argument started again, please)


EDIT: Thread tittle and post #1 updated for tonight

Did you notice that event-update has arrived?

Today I think we are going to race in Daytona Road 550 RWD with F512BB...
 
Thanks Aki... Haven't been on line. But WTF, is it FRIDAY already and I didn't notice??? Geez... Jack, I guess you were right and PD's announcement was wrong.

Ok, so you guys prefer Daytona road :yuck:? Or shall we go to Fuji :D?

Definitely using the 512BB today no matter where :grumpy:

(eiger + FWD + hairpins + guardrails = punter fest)
 
Fuji might be good too. I will go to test it now... it's 650PP and 10laps, so we need to figger out some new rules then.
 
I'd go for Daytona Road, I remember the 512BB being a lot of fun there :)

All the best
Maz
